Acceptance is Everything !!


Readers !!
 Hope you doing good !! 



And everyone wants that thing. Everyone does everything in a way to obtain that thing. There is nobody devoid of this urge to relish this feeling.

What it is?
It is ACCEPTANCE.

Yes! Truly everybody loves the feeling of getting accepted. Everyone endlessly looks for the approval of his thoughts, his mindset, his doings, his feelings, so that he could approve this everything himself.

Ego is a strange thing. We know ourselves so much yet we don't know. We are so sure about something and in the next moment possibly so unsure about it.

Acceptance is indeed indispensable element in life. For me another word for Friendship is "Acceptance"

How can this be so important?

Human beings can't live alone. They always need someone around. They need constant support from other people. They need reminders that they are Good, And unique at least in something.

They look for various things/people all through their lives. Their search seems to be endless though their life doesn't. In this Race & Rush of things, deep down everyone actually wants just one thing and that is "Acceptance". Yes it is that needed.

Just imagine you are having an hard day

And deep-plunged into thoughts of what is happening? What's wrong?

Then comes someone who says “Hey! What's up!  Oh god! Are you still over that thing? Oh C'mon Dude Forget it. Mistakes happen. It is not worth thinking on that. I know you will make it that way... You are Actual good. Trust me on this! And if it doesn't work out I'm always here..next to you! Just chill.

Sigh!!! 
Though Your problem is still not solved but there is Relief!

Why?
Because certain person assured you that you will make it. In another words Accepted you as you are!

It is so good to do something so little for someone having impact on his mindset which is so HUGE.

This is Magic of Acceptance!!

Accept the things as they are. Accept different people as they are. We will have complains with everybody and always. But voicing it every time isn't necessary. Instead, if you want to change something about someone do it other way round.  Let's say if you don't like certain habit/quality of someone. Just don't attack them by mocking or with comments of contempt. It never works! Ask me :P

It is very easy. Just accept them. Appreciate their 10 other qualities that you like and tell them that you absolutely love those habits of them. And then say except this one that "you always are late". The impact of this Not-so-direct-yet-so-direct-method would be surprising! The other person will give it a serious thought why? Because now they are assured that you love them, and that you actually appreciate them for many other things. He will crave for appreciation for this thing too. He would become eager to get accepted fully by you. And eventually he will rectify this error, or fulfill this shortcoming..

Thing is done! And in fact this way you won another person's respect too.

And even if you don't want to get something out of someone. Acceptance is an exceptional gift that you can give to someone and they are surely going to love it.

Acceptance is a great thing. It satisfies someone's hungry senses, making him confident and liberal which will help him to be more natural and compliant towards you.

Just accept people. Don't go on making those assumptions about them, Don't blame them for anything which is because it doesn't work so there is nothing fruitful in that. Moreover you might have done the same thing/reacted same as he did/took the same decision that he took if you were in his shoes. You never know!

Acceptance will open those hidden doors for you; Acceptance will always bring positivity and eagerness in others. It would induce greeting and pleasure in someone's heart for you which is exactly what you wish to have.

Furthermore,

Why not try to be selfless sometimes?

It is so good to listen to someone's stories, their problems, their life's happenings and then accepting them and providing them with full assurance of what they are doing is thoroughly commendable. 
It's so good to have people around who know how we are. They are fully aware about our thought-process, our life's events, and our background and still choose to be with us that to so readily. It definitely feels pleasing and winsome altogether because we feel accepted.

Just do something extra to make someone feel good.
Just walk that extra mile to make someone realize that you care.
Just say those extra little appreciating words to make someone smile.
Just reply to someone's texts in detail sometimes, loaded with those extra smileys.
Just show tinge of concern for people who are feeling helpless.
Just ask for the refill of 'chai ka cup' to talk more with someone. He/She will feel delighted!!
Just care to ask someone about his/her day to show him that he/she is important.
Just take time to call them and ask them if they are okay or if need something.
Just try to genuinely admire someone's quality it could be her looks, her dressing style or her cooking skills or her wittiness, just anything!


Just take his/her hands in yours and squeeze it and assure them everything will be alright. Just tell them to trust their self, ask them to have hope, tell them they could do it and hug them telling them you are an amazing person! They will feel real good because they can count on you because you accept them!

It just takes these extra tiny efforts to do something special for someone, but the impact it has on another person is tremendous in itself.


So next time when you want to surprise someone positively, Remember ACCEPT THEM!

There is no charm like one which ACCEPTANCE has!!

Getting accepted is the greatest hidden urge within human-being which needs to be understood and satisfied.

Wait ! You Might Be Fooling Yourself !!


Without even thinking for a second, we declare our opinions :

You are so stupid!
You are so slow!
You are so arrgh boring! 
Or on the contrary,

You are Intelligent!
You are Actual smart!
I agree with you, you are Right! 

Wait... What exactly I'm talking about here!?

It’s something called Human nature!
Still not clear...Okay! Let me say "Human Assumptions"

What is Assumption?
A noun? Yeah! And?
It is a Disease!! A mental disease!!


We are always taught to look at the things as they actually look!
Can it be true every time?
May be, May be not!

And for this "May be not", I decided to write this post!!

Okay! Let's begin...
What I mean to convey is, things are always not as we look to them, or as we perceive them.
In fact they could be totally antithesis of what 'we thought' or 'we perceived'

Of course everyone is proud of their opinions, their standpoint and their understanding
But actually it is just that what they are comfortable with! They don't know the truth. So they assume!

Assumption could possibly be truth. But on other side it could be miles far from truth.
What we see from naked eyes couldn't just be the exact thing in a complete form! It could be incomplete! It could be part of truth! It could be totally reversal of it!

Basically, it could be everything that we don't know. It could be everything that we are oblivious of! The strange thing about truth is its Inflexibility. You can show the truth in whatever light you want to show it in, but the truth in its actual form wouldn't change! It just wouldn't!  There are diverse angles of seeing truth, and varied angles of comprehending it. 
Truth doesn't work on ones pleasures! It could be favorable or unfavorable, but the real essence of truth is something that very less people understand.

What you call 'Truth' is what you feel is truth and not the actual 'Truth'. For you its truth because it’s convenient and because it’s favorable to you. You would only find actual truth when you would stop assuming and move from your comfort zone; prepare yourself for complete unpredictable impact on you that truth might have.

The So-called Dialogue: First Impression is Last Impression!! Needn't necessarily be true... Again it’s the perspective thing, or in other words 'As you take it'. Talking about me, I find it ridiculous. How can we know someone merely with the sight at first, how can we assume that person is beautiful if he/she is wearing sophisticated clothes and looks rich. It is possible that he/she is made to look like that on that very day, May be he/she could be a criminal that is asking for luxurious life for a day just before he/she is hung until death as his/her last wish !

Now, from an example of my own life,

If I, sitting in a large group of people am laughing loudly, does it imply I'm happy? Extremely happy?
Yes is the answer for majority of normal people. But it could mean anything no?

Can't it be like I'm really sad most of the times and when I find these particular people I forget my worries, and start living in the moment and look so happy like I have never looked before.

Can't it be like for the sake of 'them' I’m behaving that way just to send them the confirmation that I'm happy, though inside I might really not be!

Or

Can't it be like when I appear to be so happy when somewhere the comment is passed on me saying that "Look at him, I wish I were that happy" When actually I'm not happy and inside me there is turmoil for which everybody around is unmindful ! It is possible

Or let's take it other way, 

Someone who appears to be well-mixed up with people may actually be feeling lonely but isn't showing even the tinge of that on his/her face.

Someone, who seems to be eating an amazing no. of cheese burgers at a restaurant all at same time giving everybody around the idea that 'he is gourmet' may actually be having those burgers after having followed the strict diet chart of years from his gym.

Someone who is late for three times consecutively at office meeting, considered as an excuse maker could actually, genuinely was trying to reach on time but something real urgent or demanding came every three times and he got late. Doesn't mean he would come late for rest of the life. Does it? Not really.

Someone who failed in an exam or an important academic test would do no good in future?
What? Oh really! He might outdo every topper under this sun someday. Isn't it possible? For me it definitely is!

Someone who is following a girl everyday on a way after she leaves her home for office would be called a STALKER or a DESPO! Can't it be like that he just wants to have a conversation with her for once? Or may be casual friendship? Or may be some office related information? Or maybe he wants to tell her something really crucial about her ex-boyfriend spreading false stories about her? It could be anything! 

Someone who is looking dull and mediocre could be most interesting person ever..He might chooses to be quiet sometimes, may be he has so many people in his life that he makes it look like he is boring and uninteresting to avoid coming in contact with any more people or may be something else ! Who Knows !!



How can someone be so presumptive?

How can someone comment on something/someone so confidently without having proper insight of that particular thing/person? How can someone be so uppish? Why are people not ready to see it other way? Why don't they believe in the possibility of it being a total blunder? Or their comment totally wrong? May be they are too proud to do that but that's not an excuse to get away from truth isn't it? There is no getting away from truth. The truth always finds its way from various false barriers, from various "Assumptions", from various "Perceptions".

Its matter of choice, you take what you understand. You consider what you can relate to! You can be near to truth yet totally unaware. You could know the truth but are not willing to accept.

Just remember, everything that we see or perceive may not be true as it is ! It might be hiding something that we never know about, may  be its something that we are unable to see, so keep those eyes ready for surprise !

The truth is Final. Yes! But the irony is that even that 'Finale' is different for different people! What a Hypothetical thing this truth is! Well I believe truth is as clear as crystal. Its matter of seeing it from different angles. Its matter of seeing it wholly. Its matter of accepting whatever result it brings. Its matter of surrendering yourself to truth, the 'Actual Truth'.


No I don't want you to end your every sentence with "May be". Neither I want you to be unsure about anything, I just don't wish to see you unyielding when you eventually find out truth that might be unfavorable for you.

I'm not against you or your perception. I just want you to be prepared for the complete inversion from that perception which could be 'Truth'

Just-be-prepared, 

Truth could surprise you. 
Truth could shake you. 
Truth could satisfy you.
Truth could send you on the guilt trip.
Truth could clarify.
Truth could mystify.

It’s about level of your mental preparation to accept it matters.

Let's not assume things, let's surrender ourselves to something called "Truth", 
'THE ACTUAL TRUTH'
